26565054be71271ecd12a44fb603f5d7THE CARING VET OFFERS COMPREHENSIVE EXAMINATIONS THAT HELP EVALUATE THE OVERALL HEALTH OF YOUR PET.

 
Regular physical examinations can detect problems in their early stages, before they become serious illnesses requiring prolonged treatment. Preventative medicine is the easiest, least expensive and most important way to keep your pet healthy. Early detection ensures prompt action, which may solve the problem before serious consequences occur. We encourage discussions about nutrition, allergies, dental care , mobility issues, risk of infections, and any lifestyle or age related changes.

REMEMBER THE OLD SAYING, "AN OUNCE OF PREVENTION IS WORTH A POUND OF CURE"? THAT HAPPENS TO BE AS TRUE FOR THE HEALTH OF YOUR DOG AS IT IS FOR ANY MEMBER OF YOUR FAMILY!

YOUR PET’S VISIT MAY INCLUDE:

  • Obtaining a medical history and check your dog’s vital signs and record your pet’s weight
  • Performing a comprehensive physical exam, including a dental exam
  • Administering appropriate vaccinations given based on the age, health, environment and risk level of your pet.
